Which acupuncture point is used to treat tracheitis?

If you suffer from tracheitis, you will not only cough and have phlegm, but it will also easily cause shortness of breath and difficulty breathing as the climate changes. Currently, in addition to controlling infection (bacteria, viruses), drinking more water, keeping warm, combining work and rest, and taking the right medicine, there is another treatment method for relieving bronchitis, which is acupoint stimulation therapy. So what are the acupoints for treating tracheitis? Let’s analyze it in detail.

Acupoints refer to specific pores where the qi of the internal organs and meridians of the human body is transferred or infused into the intersection of the flesh, skin and bones on the body surface. Stimulating the acupoints through different methods can help treat chronic bronchitis.

1. Acupuncture treatment: Acupuncture treatment refers to symptomatic treatment by acupuncture points based on the disease situation and patient's physical condition. Commonly used acupoints include Feishu, Fengmen, Lieque, Tiantu, Dazhui, Feishu, Xinshu, etc.

2. Acupoint patching: Acupoint patching refers to applying medicine on the acupoints of the human body, so that the medicine can penetrate along the meridians and internal organs and amplify the efficacy, thereby activating the body's immunity. Patients with chronic bronchitis can apply pharyngitis patches on the "Dazhui point" and "Tiantu point" to achieve the effect of relieving sore throat and reducing inflammation.

3. Acupoint injection: Acupoint injection refers to the selection of Chinese and Western medicines to be injected into relevant acupoints to treat diseases. Studies have shown that the efficacy of the same dose of drugs injected into acupoints is stronger than subcutaneous, intramuscular or even intravenous injection. Taking bilateral Zusanli injection therapy to treat chronic bronchitis can achieve ideal results.

4. Cupping therapy: Cupping therapy refers to selecting relevant acupoints and allowing the cups to be adsorbed on the acupoints to produce extensive stimulation, forming local congestion or congestion, to achieve the effects of promoting lung function and replenishing qi, resolving phlegm, relieving cough and relieving asthma. After the cupping, the patient's meridians can be dredged through health massage.

5. Auricular acupuncture therapy: Auricular acupuncture therapy refers to the use of acupuncture, auricular acupuncture, magnetic therapy, and massage of auricular points to adjust the body's endocrine system and visceral functions.

6. Acupoint massage treatment: Head massage [effective acupoints] Yingxiang, Baihui, Shangxing, Qiaogong, Bailao and other acupoints, as well as lung, trachea, Duipingjian and other ear points.

① Use the middle fingers of both hands to press the left and right Yingxiang points 50-100 times each.

The method of stimulating acupoints to treat bronchial tubes has certain benefits, but we would like to remind everyone not to be blind, because if the acupoint stimulation is not used properly, it will not only fail to treat bronchitis, but also have a life-threatening impact. First, you should go to the hospital for a check-up, and then use the acupoint stimulation method that suits you to treat tracheitis based on the examination results and the doctor's advice.
